  JACE: In the years since everything changed in Screaming Woods, including myself, the only place I've found solace is in the woods I protect as a park ranger. I'm not sure how to deal with my new . . . attributes as a wolfman. 
   
   
   
  I'm destined to be alone now; at least that's what I assumed. Until I meet Dakota. 
   
   
   
  Dakota moves to town to open a gourmet pet treat business, but I know there is more to the story. Fate has given me something else—her, my mate. Now I'll do anything to keep her safe and make her mine, even accept the monster I've become. 
   
   
   
  DAKOTA: When looking for a place to open a brick-and-mortar store for the business I run with my best friend, I wanted to take the opportunity to move far away. Something was calling me to Screaming Woods, so I took a chance. 
   
   
   
  Opening Paws Up is going well. The town is welcoming and a little odd. I'll be able to stay out of trouble and focus on the business. 
   
   
   
  Then Jace growls his way into my life. He's a wolfman who loves nature and takes offense to my business, though I can't understand why. Hopefully my past won't come back to haunt me and try and take it all away from me. Even if it does, I'm knot running from fate.

  Whispering Willows is a place where wishes come true, but at what cost? 
   
   
   
  I didn't expect to be a widow at forty years old. I didn't expect to be a single mother. I didn't expect to inherit a mountain of debt. And I definitely didn't expect to return to Whispering Willows—or my life as a witch. 
   
   
   
  But here I am: I've reopened my mother's wish shop, started granting wishes, and am teaching my daughter magic. 
   
   
   
  Life is perfect . . . Almost. 
   
   
   
  There's my ex, who's aged unfairly well and who also happens to be my daughter's teacher. My high school BFF, who has turned into a major bully. And then there's the golden lamp. 
   
   
   
  After I find it in the basement, strange things start happening: the random rain showers in my shop, the ruined wishes, the seagull who can suddenly sing (off-key) showtunes. Just when I think it can't get any weirder, I throw the lamp in the ocean, and it appears back in my shop the next day. 
   
   
   
  Something is trying to escape that lamp, and if I don't figure out what, our new beginning might be over before it's even started.

  Street The (The Work of H P...

  The story traces the history of the titular street in a New England city, presumably Boston, from its first beginnings as "but a path" in colonial times to a quasi-supernatural occurrence in the years immediately following World War I. As the city grows up around the street, it is planted with many trees and built along with "simple, beautiful houses of brick and wood", each with a rose garden. As the Industrial Revolution runs its course, the area degenerates into a run-down and polluted slum, with all of the street's old houses falling into disrepair.
  After World War I and the October Revolution, the area becomes home to a community of Russian immigrants. Among the new residents is the leadership of a "vast band of terrorists," who are plotting the destruction of the United States on Independence Day. When the day arrives, the terrorists gather to do the deed, but before they can get started, all the houses in the street collapse concurrently on top of each other, killing them all. Observers at the scene testify that immediately after the collapse, they experienced visions of the trees and rose gardens that had once been in the street.

  The Metamorphosis

  The Metamorphosis** is a powerful narrative that revolves around the harrowing tale of a young man named Gregor Samsa, who, after a night filled with restless dreams, awakens to find himself inexplicably transformed into a grotesque, beetle-like creature. This sudden and horrifying change casts him into a punishingly lonely existence, forcing him to confront the shame and disgrace he brings upon his family. In his new form, Gregor feels like a stranger in his own home, epitomizing the experience of alienation that many feel in their lives.  
  The story opens with a vivid description of Gregor’s shocking transformation. As he lies in bed, his back now covered in a hard, armor-like shell, he struggles to comprehend his new reality. Lifting his head slightly, he gazes down at his grotesque body – a vast, domed belly segmented and rigid, almost as if it were made from a thick, impenetrable material. The bed quilt, once a comforting presence, now teeters precariously atop him, threatening to slip away and expose the full extent of his bizarre predicament. His legs, thin and weak in comparison to the mass of his body, flail aimlessly before him, a pitiful sight that reinforces his helplessness. This striking imagery frames a profound exploration of human emotions: inadequacy, guilt, and the suffocating sense of isolation that can consume one’s existence.
